EDIT: It just says you can go, does not ask you to present anything. I've only bought a few things from Ervell so I don't think it's a strict sale or anything like that

And everything good at Mr. Porter is pretty much marked new season or permanent collection thus not part of VIP saleEdited by stevent - 5/13/15 at 11:21am

yes, it's called an opinion for a reason. and trust me, no one's going to proxy for a twat like you. unfortunately for you, that one's a fact.
he got banned because he was charging proxy fees or something without approval from the admins. i forgot the details; it was last year.

Obviously the guy was breaking StyFo rules by charging people, so he got banned and then later fined. Our rule-abiding @jsimonovis413 would now like to know who else can break Mr. Porter's rules for him.

This is not actually what went down. He posted in this thread that he was willing to proxy for a fee. Well, not only is that against www.mrporter.com rules, but it's against our rules to post sales in this thread anyway. That, and we do not allow advertisement of a service that breaks the ToS for a third party website - it's bad practices, and while we are protected by our ToS, it could potentially cause a huge hassle for our moderation team. I promptly deleted his posts, and sent him the usual note saying that he owed a fine. He told me to fuck off, more or less. I decreased the fine to a nominal slap on the wrist, which is all it is meant to be unless you are habitual offender, in which case, we are happy to be rid of you, and when he said no again, I banned his account, as I told him I would. He promptly made a second account, again, against Styleforum's very few rules, and tried to contact people via PM, saying "psst... it's really me...", so I banned him again.

You really have to do some dumb shit to get banned here, permanently. Breaking the rules, which apply to everyone, refusing to take the lightest of raps on the knuckle, and instead, telling me that I am being unreasonable, and then instead of either agreeing to our terms, and coming back, or leaving, period, trying to go behind our backs? That, that will get you banned.

RE. proxies - you are welcome to use the marketplace to advertise your proxy services (as an individual) so long as it does not break the ToS of third parties, in our buying and selling section. You can offer to help people out for FREE (i.e. no service fee) here. Um, also, please don't ask for proxies here. That should be a WTB ad in the marketplace. Simple principle applies here: you may ask to give (free and freely), but you may not ask to receive. Okay?

I have proxied here to people from the Matches private sale many times for free. If people don't want to thats fine, just don't get angry because someone else is actually being kind and doing things the right way.

This is actually the right way to do things here, though if it's not actually something that the retailer allows, and we'd get a letter from them asking us to take down the post, maybe don't post things out on the open forum.

My spending increases to a lot more when the sale comes around and they've never contacted me or anything like that so I think it's okay. But of course, if asked not to, I wouldn't.

"we invite you to join us for our private Family & Friends sale in advance of our first annual Warehouse Sale"

I emailed them asking if it will be the same inventory/prices as the warehouse sale but haven't heard back. I would assume it is, but the wording sounded just slightly unclear.Edited by Regg - 5/13/15 at 1:48pm
